Does Critical (of potential equips) work against bosses?
I have a wand with 6% critical, which - I presume - means that approx 1 / 16 attacks will be one hit kills.
Does that still work aganst bosses? Not much use against anything else, really, since I tend to go for 2HK, max 3HK.
Of course, with LHC and some other new chars, Maple are stretching the definition of boss these days.
Hmmm, would that wand give 1/ 16 OHK in LHC where I otherwise need 150+ hits to kill even the weakest?
Yes, %crits work against all normal (not special, pvp, etc) mobs. That includes bosses.
Also, keep in mind that after big bang all classes get 5% base crit. So, if your skills don't add anything else, you actually have 11% crit. An extra 6% crit is only going to add about 2% total damage (assuming no increased crit damage skills) against bosses.
Spoiler!
Crits =/= one hit kill.
Crits mean your number pops up pink and deals more damage than normal.

Since you have a 6% crit weapon and 5% crit base, you have a total of 11% chance to do a critical.
Unaltered crits can be 120%-150% normal damage. There are many skills you can get to increase the minimum damage, and Sharp Eyes (Bowmaster/Marksman 4th job party skill) can increase your max crit damage.

Thanks, as always, for your info.
Pre-BB my normal damage was in the 17k range. Post-BB I seem to be doing circa 100k (!).
In HC, which just launched in SEA, w/o using that 6% critical wand, my damages is only about 2 to 3k, BUT my critical is of the order of 70k.
I will experiment & post back for posterity if I discover anythng interesting.
